KOMIKon will be holding a contest-free cosplay event and that means that there won't be any of the hassles of your usual cosplay event like registrations, judging and catwalk but unfortunately there won't be any perks that would be given to the cosplayers like dressing rooms and a cosplayer area. In order to adhere/conform with the event's theme, the contest-free cosplay event will be STRICTLY FILIPINO KOMIK CHARACTERS ONLY!!! KOMIKon won't be permitting any other categories like anime, manga, western comics, etc.

The event theme for this year is FILIPINO KOMIKS.
